A. The owner, occupant, lessee, or tenant of any property within the city shall be responsible for the maintenance of property and premises in a manner consistent with the provisions of this chapter and this code.
B. In order to enforce the provisions of this chapter, when the city manager or his/her duly authorized agents and representatives find and determine that the severity of the violation warrants immediate action, he/she may clean up or abate violation thereof. The cost of such cleanup or abatement may be recovered by the city using any legal remedies available to the city. Such cleanup or abatement shall not relieve the person of responsibility for the abatement costs or other action which may be taken by the city manager or his/her duly authorized agents and representatives, including, but not limited to, liability for any violations of this chapter or any other applicable provisions of state law and local ordinances.
